Feb 16th ☆ShaveOfTheDay☆ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blackbird Polished Maggard synthetic Chiseled Face soap ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Wonderful 2-pass wtg/xtg shave this morning. The polished Blackbird is an AMAZING razor, paired it this morning with a new Feather Hi-stainless blade and it was one smooth shave. Also kudos to the Chiseled Face Cedar & Spice soap .. the performance is top notch as is the ingredients ( beef tallow, aloe vera juice, mango butter, avocado oil etc) and the fragrance is bad $$$ (meaning Very good LOL) ☆ HAVE A GREAT DAY ☆

2/16/16 - Proraso Tuesday! I've been using Proraso on Tuesday during the Month of Febuary and up for today's shave is the Green: I really like the green, earthy scent of this soap. Very subtle and doesn't last long. The feel is nice and cool from the Menthol. I think tomorrow I'm going to use K Shave Worx the Didge to compare. The H Boker King Cutter is one of my best shavers. Very smooth and holds a remarkable edge. The handle is custom with Resin and Cactus brought to life by Dillon at www.fretzwerks.com. The Aftershave is lacking to me. It has a decent feel, just wish there was more scent and longevity. It doesn't last but about 30 min for me. Overall good shave. Still not 100%. Didn't shave yesterday account being under the weather. Thank you all for the nice sentiments. Here's the video of today's shave if you want to watch. Even have a problem that some might can help me with. How to get at some hairs with a straight.

Razor: Bullgoose SR108 Brush: VDH Boar Had a smooth and comfortable shave today. Technique was solid and skin is feeling great. This was my first time trying these blades and the blade was plenty sharp and smooth, just not as smooth as GSBs or Voskhod. No irritation anywhere and BBS on my face and close to BBS on my neck except a small section that grows at a weird angle making it difficult to shave efficiently. All in all a great shave.

And why, I ask, Oh terrible, ugly avatar, aren't you showing off your Toggle? Because if you have ANY second thoughts, I would break my NB'16 without skipping a beat to take it off your hands...just saying.
